Job Description

• Design and implement scalable distributed systems that handle heavy CPU, disk, and network workloads. • Architect systems for high throughput, reliability, and efficient resource utilization. • Develop distributed algorithms and data processing pipelines. • Analyze system behavior to identify bottlenecks across compute, storage, and network layers. • Optimize workloads for maximum efficiency and minimal resource waste. • Develop strategies for parallelization, batching, and workload scheduling. • Implement system components and tooling primarily in Python and Bash. • Build custom orchestration, automation, and distributed job execution mechanisms. • Write efficient algorithms and low-level logic to manage large-scale workloads. • Build instrumentation, metrics, and telemetry to measure system performance. • Develop dashboards and analysis workflows to guide optimization decisions. • Use empirical data and experimentation to improve system behavior. • Design systems that operate reliably across distributed environments. • Implement monitoring, debugging, and recovery mechanisms for large-scale systems. • Collaborate with infrastructure and platform teams to ensure smooth deployment and operation.

Job Requirements

  • Strong experience building distributed systems or large-scale backend infrastructure
  • Deep understanding of systems performance (CPU, memory, disk I/O, networking)
  • Experience optimizing workloads for throughput and efficiency
  • Strong Python development skills
  • Strong Bash / shell scripting
  • Ability to implement and reason about algorithms and system-level logic
  • Experience with parallel processing, distributed job execution, or large data pipelines
  • Familiarity with Linux systems, resource scheduling, and performance tuning
  • Understanding of networked systems and distributed coordination
  • Strong data-driven mindset with focus on measurement and experimentation
  • Experience building observability, metrics, and instrumentation
  • Ability to debug complex systems in production environments
  • Experience with high-performance computing (HPC) workloads
  • Experience with containerized environments (Docker/Kubernetes)
  • Background in large-scale data processing or distributed compute frameworks
  • Familiarity with performance profiling tools and system tracing
